Two new clubs, Track Back and Palano, have been elected to the Hadleigh Carport South-end Borough Combination for the forthcoming campaign.

The Combination's annual meeting approved the reorganisation of the divisions which resulted in the reserve section, established two seasons ago, being absorbed into the set-up.

The final count is 86 teams in seven divisions and the constitution included the re-election of the two bottom teams from last season's Division Six - Leigh Town 2nd and Battlesbridge 4th.

Applications from Darby County and Towerfield Rangers were not accepted.

Ekco Sports and Thames Park have amalgamated to become Ekco Thames Park and will have four teams participating.

The whole line-up of officers and 12 members of the executive were re-elected.

Two applications for the post of registration secretary have been received following the recent death of Fred Wright and the executive will meet shortly to decide on a replacement.

One amendment to rules sees the referees' fee to rise to £20 per match inclusive of expenses.
